[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 658772, member: 14557"] Thanks CoM! Though, curiously, I can't even have solace in thought that nothing we have done has helped. Not that I'm sorry that many of our interferences have actually worked to some degree at least. I mean, things could be worse. First we did look for and force Ache to addiction treatment. After he completed that, he has been clean over four years with just few slips. Then we had a hand talking him to accept services of sport psychologist, then psychiatrist and later on we enabled and influenced his decision to start therapy. I had a part in talking him to give medications a chance. We enable him to continue using services of that sport psychologist and he has been heaven sent. Ache has improved a lot in many areas of life through working with him. And while his mental health is not in good place, he had stayed alive and functioning these last 4,5 years after we started interfering to this area of his life. At least he has some names and tools to his issues instead of trying to drown them to his addiction and fearing he is going 'just crazy.' It is far from perfect, but he is alive and functioning despite his mental illness. That has to be something. If nothing else, we have been able to keep him these four years instead of burying him then. And unfortunately that wasn't unrealistic scenario at all. [/QUOTE]
